After adding a RibbonControlAdv, ToolStripTabItems and ToolStripEx in the parent ribbonform, add a RibbonPanelMergeContainer to the ChildForm. ToolStripEx can be added into this by right Clicking on it. Now add this ChildForm to the RibbonForm that is the MDIParent of the childForm.
C#
ChildForm frm = new ChildForm(); frm.MdiParent = this; frm.Show();
VB
Dim frm As ChildForm = New ChildForm() frm.MdiParent = Me frm.Show()
Note:
The MDIParent Ribbonform should host a RibbonControlAdv to get the ChildForm's panels to be merged. Run the sample to view the ChildForm and the RibbonPanel merged with the RibboncontrolAdv in the ParentForm. Without a single line of coding, the RibbonPanel in the ChildForm will get merged with its ParentForm.
